A delicious addition to the food choices in town. I have been a dozen times since the opening. Everything I have ordered has been absolutely delicious. A definite must try.

This is my second time coming to Buoys. The food is great and the family who owns it is super friendly. So far, I've had catfish nuggets, hush puppies, hot wings ( and they have big wings), Cole slaw, cheese sticks, fried green tomatoes, kids had chicken strips, and I had a shrimp po' boy. Everything was fantastic! Definitely check this place out!

The food was fresh and hot & served in a timely fashion.Their service is great. The bathrooms were very clean. Their Dining area was clean and when I went to throw away the food and place
the basket they immediately came out and offered to do it. They do very good business. It’s worth it.
